| 'Meet Corliss Archer' - Male Ego
Episode of the 1954-1955 sitcom "Meet Corliss Archer" called 'Male Ego'. This episode is slightly ahead of it's time; Whether that's a good or bad thing is up to you to decide. The cast mainly did New York stage work, despite the distinctly "TV for those who love TV" feel of the show. Indeed, Ann Baker hardly did any other TV work after this, despite obviously being a good actress. Mary Brian was a former silent film star.

Not too bad at all, actually.

A 1954 episode of the NBC Television Network sitcom "I Married Joan" entitled "The Clothes Budget". Possibly the most jumpy, confusing, and at times sloppy episode of this series, though it's still funny. The series is very similar to "I Love Lucy" (1951-1957), which itself is similar to "Mary Kay and Johnny" (1947-1950). A moderate success, it lasted 3 seasons but never made the Top 20. Annoyingly, this is an edited print.

Another episode of the 1950's Television series "The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet", complete with original commercials for Eastman Kodak.. The show was reasonably popular, but like "The Flintstones" and "The Brady Bunch", the show never ranked in the Top 20, presumably because ABC-TV was a minor network at the time.
